Thanks for your help (Patience) 
Well, it is weird, the server boots up off the usb cdrom but somehow
just before anaconda loads the drive is disconnected. Now there is a
little delay at "anaconda loading" if I pull the usb cdrom plug and
reinsert it during that interval anaconda loads a usb driver and my
ks.cfg runs. 

The same thing happens in a text install when I select "Load from cdrom"
it ask for a driver, I select usb-storage, and it can't find the usb
cdrom, again if I pull the plug and reinsert it, it will find it. Maybe
the usb cdrom I am using (TDK).

I still have that issue with the RAID1 (md0) not booting though. I read
your article about that issue, tried it but could not get it to work,
and you recommended using lilo, but there is no option to use lilo in
the install.
